the house of yes

Seen on the road in front of a house in Natick, MA.

There were no other words on this sign. Not "YES ON 16" or "YES TO POZZIOLA" or "YES I'D LIKE SOME MORE HAM PLEASE". Just "YES". I very much like thinking of it as a general statement upon the world. Yes. Yes! yes I said yes I will Yes.

When I drove by again a few hours later, the sign was gone.

I really like that. I'd do that. I never thought of it though, but now I would!

I admit mild dissapointment though, I thought when I clicked the link I was hoping to read about your personal connection to Joyce. :-)

cool! Not everyone quotes Joyce in their wedding ceremony!
We had Goethe's quote on Comittment and that respected master of English letters A.A. Milne as well. :-)

You should absolutely put up your own version. Your sign could say "WHY"!

The problem with "WHY" is that it leads directly to a recent (past 5 years?) beer commercial.

I'd suggest "42" or "23" or even "e^i*π+1=0," just to confuse people.

"WHY?"
seems an apt thing to put up these days, especially considering our politcal situation. Siiigh.
